Abstract: The disclosure enables accurately inspecting a top inclination of a bottle even if the bottle is inclined. Inspecting means includes rotating means, light emitting means, mouth portion image taking means, and base portion image taking means. A telecentric lens unit included in the base portion image taking means includes a central reflector, reflective plates, and a telecentric lens that are disposed in a box-shaped main body. The central reflector has a triangular pole shape. The reflective plates are positioned on both left and right sides of the central reflector. Light incident through an entrance is reflected by the reflective plates, then reflected by reflection planes on both sides of the vertex of the central reflector, passes through the telecentric lens, and reaches a camera. The top inclination in a vertical state is calculated from two points at the top of the bottle mouth and two points in a simultaneously taken base-portion image.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the alkylation of residual hydrocarbons obtained from pyrolytic processes, in particular processes for the obtaining of synthesis gas from wet crushed coal, essentially alkene- and alkane-type waste products, in order the exploit the energy thereof in the form of alkenes, alkanes and alcohols having a high energy content. The method is essentially characterised in that the waste products obtained from the synthesis gas formation are subject to a subsequent treatment in order to transform them into other branched alkane-type products and alcoholic compounds, recovering the hydrogen and water produced in said reactions, that remain available for their subsequent use as fuel in other chemical processing plants, or to be fed back to the gasification-pyrolysis process itself, to enrich the synthesis gas obtained.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for controlling and managing virtual machines and other such virtual systems. VM execution approval is based on compliance with policies controlling various aspects of VM. The techniques can be employed to benefit all virtual environments, such as virtual machines, virtual appliances, and virtual applications. For ease of discussion herein, assume that a virtual machine (VM) represents each of these environments. In one particular embodiment, a systems management partition (SMP) is created inside the VM to provide a persistent and resilient storage for management information (e.g., logical and physical VM metadata). The SMP can also be used as a staging area for installing additional content or agentry on the VM when the VM is executed. Remote storage of management information can also be used. The VM management information can then be made available for pre-execution processing, including policy-based compliance testing.
